Vladimir Putin nominated for Nobel Peace Prize

[maurya78]

Sounds like a legit rumour makes my day...

[Lethn]

Obama did make the world a better place with his amazing political foreign affair talent?

I didn't said that. I was just stating that Obama is not as war crazy as some of the GOP politicians, such as McCain and Romney. That is a fact.

No, he's not as openly war crazy as some of the GOP politicians, if you haven't had your head buried somewhere you'd know that already, Democrats and Republicans are the same.

No, he's not as openly war crazy as some of the GOP politicians

The best example is Ukraine.

[Lethn]

Even Sarah Palin would think twice about attacking the Crimea because of World War 3, so it's not really a very good example if it's the best. Scratch that, I just read up more on Kennedy but at least he worked to fight central banks

there won't be WW 3 unless Russia invades other countries without Russians, only then USA and others might interfere, they are to afraid to do so now, they're afraid of WW 3 and direct conflict of those nations

WW3 can occur if Russia invades Estonia and Latvia, which are having ethnic Russian populations of 25% and 30% respectively. Both these nations are NATO members.

Agreed. Can't over look the invasion of NATO members

Estonian or Latvian government could be dropped using the existing schema, like USA did in the Ukraine, Georgia, Egypt and many other countries. Then it removes itself from NATO, and all these things are resolved. This scenario is possible, I guess.

Well.. in both Estonia and Latvia, the ethnic Russians have no voting rights. Similar to the apartheid-era South Africa. And they are in minority. So not much of a chance for a coup actually succeeding.

How can it be a fact regarding war and Romney? Just writing the word "fact" on a computer screen does not make it so you know. Listen you love Obama no matter what and I respect that.

Nope. As you know from my posts, I am pro-Russian. It is good for Russia that Obama is the prez. of the US. That's all. I am not concerned with all the Dem / GOP debate.

Then your position is logical now. I was afraid you were a blind Obama cheerleader with that amazing post of yours regarding all the unicorns he tamed.

Putin is not eligible. He hasn't killed and bombed. 

Then again, Norwegians gave Obama the prize in the hopes that it would prevent (morally bind) him from killing and bombing. But it was a lost cause from day one, seeing how he dropped by for a second to receive the prize, all but saying that he has no time for such nonsense.

[Bit_Happy]

Recent Nobel Peace Prize winners include Obama and Putin.
What does that really say about the Nobel Peace Prize?

After world war III there would be long lasting peace.

Long lasting peace after World War III?
How many people will be alive to enjoy the peace?

That's the whole point. There won't be humans left to make war. Ergo: long-lasting peace.

[Balthazar]

Peace means absence of competition, with following stagnation. War & armed neutrality is a true nature of the mankind, so if there is no enemy then it will be appointed automatically... And this process will continue while there is enough resources available, but eventually it leads to crash of civilization. I suppose that it's a design flaw.

Sounds like we only have ~500t years remaining.

[Balthazar]

Under the current circumstances, yes. However, it's unlikely that there will be no way to increase the amount of available resources. Breeder reactors, shale oil, etc.

Hillary Clinton really deserved a Nobel. Infact, she deserved it much more than Obama.
